Colossians 3:14
Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds us all together in perfect harmony.
Walking in love is the key to fulfilling what God expects from every believer. We are called to love both those who are easy to love and those who are difficult. It is natural to find joy in loving and caring for our family because it is easy to love the people we care about and to do things that enrich their lives. While that is admirable, God is calling us to reach those who need to experience His love—even when they are not easy to engage.
Some people may be difficult to love because of their attitudes, past hurts, or the way they treat others. Perhaps they are harsh, impatient, or unkind. Maybe they have betrayed your trust, spoken against you, or caused pain in your life. Others may be struggling with deep wounds, making them defensive or closed off to relationships. Still, God calls us to love them. Loving difficult people does not mean tolerating mistreatment, but it does mean extending grace, kindness, and patience, just as God does for us.
The thought of engaging with people we would rather avoid can be difficult, especially if we have experienced trauma. It may feel safer to stay within the comfort of our own bubble. However, God wants us to step outside our bubble, beyond our circle of comfort, and walk in the love He calls us to demonstrate.
When we share God’s love, people will experience the amazing transformation it brings. We are called to be willing vessels that God can use to show His great love. He is challenging us to extend His love to someone in need.
Ask Him today to prepare your heart and show you what act of love you can do today for someone who needs it.
It is true—love binds us together to create beautiful harmony. Love also heals!
Let's extend the love of God even further so others may experience the wonders of his love.
